Step 1 Download DuClaw

  • Android: Search "DuClaw" in the official app stores (Tencent App Store, Huawei AppGallery, Xiaomi Store)
  • iOS: Search "DuClaw" in the App Store
  • Only download from official app stores to avoid unofficial versions
Can't find it? Availability varies by region. Contact QclawHQ on WeChat for alternative download options.

Step 2 Register and initialise

  • Open DuClaw and follow the setup prompts
  • Create an account or log in
  • Select Chinese as the display language
  • Accept the permissions prompts that appear

Step 3 Enable RedFinger Operator

This is the most important step β€” without it, DuClaw can only respond in text, not control your apps.

  • Go to Settings β†’ Operator β†’ Enable RedFinger
  • The system will request Accessibility Service permission β€” tap Allow
  • Android note: Some brands (Huawei, Xiaomi, OPPO) require extra steps. Go to your phone's Settings β†’ Accessibility β†’ DuClaw and enable all toggles manually
  • Operator status should show "Active"
Privacy note: Accessibility permission is used only to control app interfaces. DuClaw cannot read passwords or payment details through this permission.

Step 4 Send your first command

  • "Open WeChat" β€” basic Operator test
  • "Search Baidu for today's weather in Shanghai" β€” tests Baidu integration
  • "Remind me to drink water every 2 hours" β€” tests scheduled tasks
No response? Confirm Operator is Active in Settings, then check the FAQ for common fixes.
